Hidden (Hidden Series Book One)
Author:
M. Lathan
Genre:
YA Paranormal
Sixteen-year-old Leah Grant has given up on being
normal. She'd settle for stopping the voices in her head, intrusive visions of
the future, and better odds of making it to her seventeenth birthday.
That's the thing about pretending to be human in a world where magic used to exist - at any moment, her cover could be blown and she'll be burned to death like the rest of the witches.
Everything changes when she loses control of her powers and flees the orphanage she grew up in. She desperately wants to be invisible but finds her face plastered on every news channel as humans panic over the possible resurgence of her kind. And now the hunters won't give up until they find her.
Making friends for the first time in her life and falling in love with one of them drives her to discover why she is unlike any being she's ever met - human or otherwise. The dangerous powers inside of her that would repel Nathan, her new, handsome reason for living, are priceless to some. The locked up forever kind of priceless. And to others, they are too dangerous to allow her to live.
Let's hope she can stay hidden.

Book Excerpt:
Sienna snatched last week’s Chemistry test from my
desk. I hadn’t turned it over. I knew it was a D minus.
She cackled and passed it around.
“Leah, you would think someone who spends most of
her time alone would have better grades,” she said. Her birds laughed on cue.
“What do you do all day? Obviously not study.” She gasped slowly like she’d
gotten a revelation in that blonde head of hers. “You fantasize about us, don’t
you? You probably sleep in Whit’s old bed to feel close to her.”
Laughter spread around the room like an airborne disease.
Disease. I shivered. That was an intriguing thought; I could almost hear
the sound their bodies would make against the floor when it hit.
“Leah, come on. Say something. Scream at me, it’s
been a while. At least cry,” Sienna said, laughing and leaning into my desk,
closer to danger.
I didn’t cry. I never cry. And if I were going to,
it wouldn’t be because of Sienna. I had bigger problems. I’d just broken a
promise I’d made to God to not think about hurting His people, His children.
And today was not the day to piss Him off.
My old roommate, Whitney Nguyen, graciously returned
my test as she cackled with the rest of the birds. She liked the idea of me
pining over her, but she knew I didn’t spend my free time thinking about her or
sleeping in her old bed. After fourteen years of hard labor as my roommate,
she’d given up on being friends or me being remotely normal. The current theory
to explain my oddness was that I was in love with all of the girls and consumed
by lust.
As long as they didn’t know it was magic.

Book Excerpt:
Prologue
Fear stole my breath as I plummeted into frigid
water. I flailed my arms and legs, uselessly trying to swim against the
current. The haunting voice of a child sang “The Star-Spangled Banner” as I
sank deeper.
I fought my way to the surface only to be taken
again. The little girl droned, “And the rockets’ red glare,” as water
rushed into my lungs.
I wasn’t alone. A blurry figure struggled near me,
both of us sinking, drowning in red tinted water. Blood. It swirled with the
suffocating blue, an inescapable villain dragging us deeper and deeper.
We were two helpless bodies adrift in a world with
no air or hope, no chance of survival. The white lights glowing beneath us
looked welcoming and safe. The figure gave in. Its lifeless body sank towards
the lights as the little girl sang, “And the home of the brave.”

Prologue
Love makes you do crazy
things. It makes you lurk in shadows, duck behind buildings, compromise
everything you thought you knew about yourself. All I know now is that I love
him. All I know now is that his soul and my soul are meant to be one.
That’s why I’m here in
the shadows, on yet another mission to get the life I should rightfully have.
But I didn’t inherit patience, so this waiting is driving me insane.
The moon is fighting to
be seen through the other lights in the sky. I wish I could see the beauty in
it. I remember Emma looking up to the sky in awe like it was this magical
thing, naturally perfect. When I look at something like the moon, I want to
change it, make it better, make it suit me even more. And now I know I’ve lost
my mind because I’m thinking about the moon. I hate waiting.
But I stay there, quiet
as a mouse, barely breathing.
Then, as if I’d done
enough for God to smile on me, the impossible happened right before my eyes. A
smile stretched across my face as I listened and finally learned the value of
patience.
